“Stop forcing students to copy what already exists digitally

General

I genuinely don’t understand this system.

Our teachers are literally teaching through presentations (PPTs), which already contain all the content. Instead of just sharing those slides with us, they still make us write “classwork” during the lecture.

And the funniest part? They give us like 5 minutes to copy everything.

What exactly are we learning here?

We’re not understanding the concept properly

We’re just rushing to copy notes

Half the class ends up incomplete anyway

If the material already exists in digital form, why not just share it and let us actually focus on listening and understanding?

Writing notes made sense earlier when everything was on the board. But now it just feels like unnecessary pressure and wasted time.

Anyone else facing this? Or is it just my college stuck in the past? 😐
